Pakistan Navy has inducted a long-range loitering munition called Madad-LR. Inspired by Iran's Shahed drone family, it has an operational range exceeding 600 kilometers and is designed for precision strikes against naval and ground targets.
The Madad-LR is equipped with AI-based navigation enabling operations in GPS-denied environments and areas with heavy electronic warfare.
This loitering munition features extended range, enhanced resistance to electronic countermeasures, and the ability to strike both fixed and moving targets, as part of Pakistan Navy's efforts to bolster asymmetric warfare and stand-off strike capabilities.
